Your concern is wise. Central Banks will eventually coerce the politicians into legislating against private crypto's much like private banks notes and
coins were made illegal as currency after the establishment of the Central Banks. It is at that point that it makes sense to get into the digital bank
notes craze as an investment instrument traded on SEC regulated exchanges.

The end result is, Crypto's will all be attached to a national currency and private ones will be banned. After all, it is the technology everyone is
getting behind right? So why would it be so bad to get behind a technology coin that is based on your national currency?

And the wonderful thing is, it won't take centuries for this to happen as with paper notes, because Central Banks already exist, control the world,
and own the politicians who make the laws. It is quite easy to see where this is going when you remember history and accept that power always wins.

Yes, power always wins. If it were note true, 1/5 of Syria's territory would not be under the umbrella of NATO through autonomous rule despite Russia
being there and levying threats and false flag disinformation psy-ops that no longer have an effect.

All I have been seeing since the new year are negative returns. I have a coinbase account just to have a central place to watch the prices for the
popular guys.

You are thinking in a human vs. human capacity here, and is not soaking in the big picture I feel. You aren't including the AI vs. human coexistence
aspects I feel, and nobody knows whats going to happen once AI constructs surpass the limits of the human brain... including the creators of AI. To
act like one person in a forum here is going to be able to foresee the outcome of finances in a world of AI is about as premature as guessing can get.

At some point in time in the not so distant future, people will be able to switch from the physical world, the VR worlds, and the augmented reality
worlds quite simply. That means that what we know as finances will operate on different platforms as well. There will be VR billionaires and piss
poor physical existences in a single human. Banks and jobs won't exist in 20 years, so how is something that no longer exists have its strings pulled
by the powerful?

It's just time to face it... the technology is being fully accepted, not denied. AI will need humans to live and thrive, but humans will just as much
require a thriving AI network to be able to live comfortably. Those clinging to centralized systems will remain as slaves to a fraudulent activities
that the globe is used to living in. AI will shut these entities down if it wishes to, and the human brains will always be acting in reactionary
terms once AI computations surpass human brain computation levels. Well, guess what... AI has already surpassed the human brain, and currencies are
optional systems... not mandated anymore.

Yep, I think it will still take a day or two for many to realize these options are again available. I expect to see most of the major ones raise
across the board steadily as the week goes on, but it's really anyone's guess in this market.

I do like that I can now more easily buy into some of the other cryptos that interest me, like IOTA and ADA.

Binance also has it's fees at half for the rest of this month (as a courtesy, due to the down time), so that's a good incentive, as well as this past
two-week lowering of prices.
